In Case You Didn't Believe Me...

What is it with me these days and pointing out the flaws? I've spent so long going to such lengths to make you think I'm infallibly stylish and here I am deconstructing the illusion :-) Well, to my credit, I know this is unflattering and I didn't even consider buying it for a moment.

It's that gorgeous red dress from Club Monaco I coveted:

Only on me it says "Put it back".

Give me credit for listening...

PS: Late breaking news is that some key element of our home network has given up the ghost and it may take till next week to get new part to fix it. If this is the case, you may not see me commenting or responding to comments till Monday. What if I can't read the blogs on the weekend?? Having separation anxiety and fear of reader inbox getting so overfull they cut me off. Hope for quick fix pls.

Oh, you will be missed. Hope the network comes back to full speed soon.

I hate it when something I have long longed for is not what I dreamed. I am going to try on a skirt today that has been on my mind for weeks. I so hope it is a dream come true. Or, I have to find something else to long for. Not good. I suppose it is possible to exist without longing for a new dress. But, I don't think it would be as much fun!;-)

Well as we irish is say "it isnt the worst"As for being relieved when something expensive doesnt fit me, hmmm.Nope, Not worth the risk of going into the Dior or Chanel concessions in Brown Thomas tomorrow. I fear I would find myself doing a Winona when they did fit and look good.Instead I dawdle through the designer kids section on the way to Starbucks, and try on anything in a kids 14 that takes my fancy. They are 1/5th of the price of the grown ups version (tax free) and there is always the chance the arm holes wont fit. So either way I'm safe.

Form/Function. Line/Curve. Safe/Risk. Art/Craft. Body/Mind.
Fashion intersects these. It's how we express what is popular in what is personal. It's where intellect debates sex; where soft and hard duke it out. So much mystery underpins beautiful things. So much confidence rests upon them. Discuss.
